Chapter 456: Chapter 277: Mad Woman, Young Hero, I’m Coming to Kill You! (5K Please Subscribe)_3
This time, even the plum blossoms were turning green.
At this critical juncture between life and death, Jade Guanyin had already pushed her potential to the limit, and also her composure.
Her years of experience had long taught her that only by staying calm could she survive.
But at this moment, feeling the fist power clinging to her like a lover from behind, and sensing the rekindled Sword Qi that had seemingly extinguished, she almost couldn’t hold it together.
These two women and one man were all mad.
Duan Yun managed to escape her toxins, and she barely grasped why, but what was with these two?
Pure madness, right?
With a bang!
The ground where Jade Guanyin stood now bore a deep fist imprint, pierced through with Sword Qi, appearing unfathomably deep.
But Jade Guanyin was not there.
She wasn’t blown to bits and scattered all around, instead, she had suddenly disappeared.
Such a change caused Duan Yun and the other two to tighten their expressions.
After all, they were intent on annihilating Jade Guanyin’s entire family, and she was the one they could least afford to let go.
The next instant, the sharpest-eyed Shen Ying shouted, "In the jade!"
Duan Yun and Feng Ling’er hastily looked and indeed discovered Jade Guanyin had burrowed into the Yellow Jade Mine, and was swimming further inside like a fish.
How could a person swim inside jade?
For a moment, image after image flashed through Duan Yun’s clever mind.
They had once seen a Guanyin statue in the Yellow Jade Vein, thought it very strange, even eerie, wondering why someone would be silly enough to bury a Guanyin statue inside a jade mine, as if the statue had grown out from the jade itself.
It appears, could this jade mine actually be penetrable?
"Damn it!"
"Thinking of escaping!"
Duan Yun leaped up, channeling his True Qi into his legs, and stomped down!
With a crisp snap, the surface of the jade mine shattered, jade fragments splashed like rain, and half of his body also sank into the Yellow Jade Vein.
At this moment, Duan Yun realized that the inside of this jade mine was actually soft.
Watching Jade Guanyin escape through the jade mine like a swimming fish, he too plunged in with a fierce dive!
But the moment he plunged in, Duan Yun realized something was off.
It was completely different from what he had imagined.
He saw Jade Guanyin swimming in the jade mine like a fish, thinking the inside of this mine was like water.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t.
How to put it, it was like somewhat hard sludge, sinking into it was hard, even breathing was difficult at first.
Fortunately, his skin’s pores quickly adapted, allowing him to breathe and adjust to the environment.
Then, Duan Yun began to forcefully swim forward!
It must be said, even though he had barely solved the problem of suffocation, swimming in the Yellow Jade Vein was still extremely difficult, much harder than moving through mud.
It felt similar to swimming in cement.
Even though Duan Yun used all kinds of skills, deploying various movement techniques, he still couldn’t move as freely as Jade Guanyin.
He quickly realized.
Jade Guanyin could swim so smoothly likely because her cultivation technique was probably derived from this kind of yellow jade, or to say, she had always been cultivating with yellow jade.
This was also why her body could condense into yellow crystals, and why she could transform the Guanyin body for use.
Because they were inherently closely connected, even arguably from the same source.
Just like a swimming champion who could win an Olympic gold medal, but couldn’t burrow through dirt like an eel.
Jade Guanyin was now that eel.
Meanwhile, Shen Ying and Feng Ling’er, who had also dived into the vein, had already crawled out.
If Young Hero Duan could still move slowly with his left and right hands, they were utterly immobilized.
They found it extremely difficult to adapt to that environment.
Perhaps that’s why Jade Guanyin had managed to deceive so many Heavenly Prides without killing them.
It’s well-known in the Martial World how many people hate Jade Guanyin to the bone, and many masters came specifically to confront her, such as Feng Ling’er’s mother, and others even stronger than the Purple Dragon King Feng Yue’s mother.
Yet Jade Guanyin remained unharmed, demonstrating how formidable her survival techniques were.
No, it wasn’t just formidable, but rather miraculous.
Jade Guanyin swimming in the jade was just so miraculous.
But Young Hero Duan, on his mission to vanquish demons, couldn’t possibly give up so easily!
Since this Yellow Jade Mine obstructs me, then I shall smash it!
Breaking Body Sword Energy roared forth, splitting the jade in front of him.
Duan Yun’s speed increased, yet he discovered it still wasn’t fast enough.
"Heroic Fire Lotus!"
Another fire lotus ignited within the jade mine.
Breaking Body Sword Energy connected with the Heroic Fire Lotus, transforming into a scorching fire sword, and surprisingly worked wonders, slicing through the jade mine as though cutting through butter.
At this moment, Jade Guanyin had already dived into the water-filled jade vein, slithering like within the body of a yellow dragon.
Not seeing any reaction behind her, she couldn’t help but lie there gasping for air.
This time, it was too perilous.
She never believed she couldn’t deceive Duan Yun.
Even if he was an infamous demon, stained with the blood of countless masters, had fallen many, and destroyed many clans.
Yes, she recently had taken a liking to bad men.
Especially handsome bad men.
Thinking of the appearance of Demon Duan, she couldn’t help but hum lightly, unable to stop the itching, the unbearable itch, impossible not to deceive.
She first captured Ziyu and Ning Qing, showing enough respect to Demon Duan.
She used to deceive princes and did so in the royal palace, never coming here.
Because on Yellow Jade Island, she was unbeatable, unreachable by thousands of troops.
If she intended to hide or flee, just with her capability to freely navigate the Yellow Jade Mine, even ten masters of equal prowess couldn’t handle her.
Here, she was invincible!
But this time, Old Demon Duan, along with two female demons, truly exceeded her expectations.
All three were insane!
First the "Men Lose Their Souls at the Scent" failed consecutively; she was ambushed by these three, her abdomen penetrated, her head smashed, and her own rear end was punctured severely.
This was an unprecedented severe injury, and on top of that, Demon Duan, acclaimed as the most prominent rising demon in the last two years, proved to be a tough adversary. He couldn’t be taken down even inside the Yellow Jade Building.
If it weren’t for this Yellow Jade Mine, she feared she might have been severely injured and on the brink of death.
"Thank goodness."
Jade Guanyin sighed.
Her cultivation technique was inherently linked to the Yellow Jade Mine. Not only could she freely navigate here, but the jade mine also accelerated her healing and the recovery of her powers.
She just needed to first heal these severe injuries, and as long as she was in the mine, she was...
Suddenly, Jade Guanyin’s beautiful eyes tightened.
She suddenly saw a blaze of fire behind her in the mine.
That firelight, like a flat boat, was riding the wind and waves, following the vein towards her.
"Mad Woman! Young Hero here to kill you!"
The moment this voice sounded, Jade Guanyin’s heart skipped a beat.
Holy crap, I am so screwed!
